Edward Brewer

For the slightly more obscure health stories, Edward has his finger on the pulse.

Whether it's the latest study on how a lack of sleep is affecting productivity in the workplace or unique ways of introducing lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, Ed helps to keep us informed of the most up-to-date studies.

This is where Ed comes in, offering unique insights into the niches of Australian health and wellbeing.
